Is BARE Retreat only for women?

Is BARE Retreat only for women of color?

No, this retreat is for any woman who loves positive vibes and is interested in loving herself more from the outside in.

Wait, The Hedonism Resort is a swingers resort?

Girl, we know, Hedonism’s site is a bit outdated and right now looks like it’s mainly a swingers resort :: clutches pearls:: It’s true, couples do come to Hedonism to be a part of the lifestyle-friendly, clothing-optional, beach resort community, but Hedonism is actively working towards expanding what they're known for -- that’s where we come in!

The ladies organizing The BARE Retreat put an extreme amount of care and attention into every part of the retreat planning process. We love the vibe at Hedo, which is “live and let live.” We think the world could use a little more of that approach. We also think this is the perfect non-judgemental space for women to learn to accept and love themselves more. We are organizing our own private retreat at Hedonism with ladies ONLY in our group. All of our activities will be on the clothed side of the resort, it is totally your choice if you want to book a room on the nude side, or visit that side for a dip in the pool or a drink. Feel free to do whatever you are comfortable with.

Hedonism is an exotic, beachfront Caribbean resort located on the far western tip of Jamaica nestled in a secluded bay at the edge of Negril’s World Famous 7 Mile Beach with silky white sand.

We are going to have a great time, fam.

What does clothing optional mean?

If you choose to go topless or naked in the pool or at the beach on the clothing-optional side, you may certainly do so. That said, once you are on the nude side – whether beach or pool – you are required to be nude. Our guests are mature, sophisticated and non-judgmental; a “live and let live” philosophy is key to the enjoyment of a liberating vacation. There is never pressure for you, or any guest, to do anything you might find uncomfortable. Cover-ups, however, are required where food is served, in the lobby and certain other public areas.

What does the “3rd girl free” mean exactly?
